Spring. Such a short, simple word, yet it carries a weight of renewal, hope, and quiet excitement.
With it comes the unmistakable shift in the air—the crisp edge of winter softens, the sun lingers just a little longer, and the first brave flowers push through the thawing earth. The world stretches awake, shaking off the cold, ready to begin again.
I can feel it already. That lightness. The way the air smells different—fresh, green, full of promise. It’s the scent of rain-soaked soil and the delicate perfume of early blossoms. It’s the way the breeze feels softer, no longer biting but teasing, as if whispering, it’s time.
The Magic of the Spring Equinox
The Spring Equinox on 20th March 2025 marks that exact moment of balance—the tipping point between dark and light, winter and summer. For one day, day and night are equals. Then, just like that, the scales tip, and the light wins.
Ancient cultures honoured this shift, celebrating Ostara, the festival of renewal and fertility. Eggs, flowers, and fresh herbs were symbols of the season—reminders of new life, fresh starts, and the endless cycle of growth.
Welcoming the New Season: Rituals for Spring
As nature renews itself, so can we. The Spring Equinox is the perfect time to let go of winter’s weight, clear the mind, and step into the months ahead feeling refreshed and re-energised.
🌿 1. Clear the Energy
Spring cleaning isn’t just about dusting shelves. It’s about clearing out stagnant energy—in our homes, our minds, our spirits.
How to do it:
• Open the windows. Let fresh air sweep through.
• Burn sage or palo santo to clear negative energy.
• Take a ritual bath with lavender, rosemary, and sea salt to refresh your aura.
🔮 2. Work with Spring Crystals
The right crystals can help align your energy with the season’s renewal and growth.
Best Crystals for the Spring Equinox:
💚 Green Aventurine – Luck, opportunity, fresh starts.
✨ Clear Quartz – Clarity, energy cleansing, manifestation.
🌸 Rose Quartz – Self-love, emotional healing, new beginnings.
Carry them, meditate with them, or place them around your home to invite fresh, positive energy.
🕯 3. Set Intentions with Candle Magic
The Equinox is the perfect time to set intentions for the months ahead. What do you want to grow? What are you ready to welcome?
How to do it:
• Light a yellow or green candle to symbolise new beginnings.
• Write down your intentions for the season.
• Meditate as the flame flickers, visualising your goals blooming into reality.
A Season of Growth
Spring is a gentle kind of magic. It doesn’t demand, it invites. It whispers, come outside, feel the sun, breathe in the air. It reminds us that change is natural, growth is inevitable, and after every long winter, light always returns.
I can already feel it coming. That first truly warm afternoon. The kind where you leave your coat at home and sit outside, eyes closed, feeling the sun on your face. No rush, no urgency. Just existing in the glow of something new beginning.
Spring is almost here. Let it in. 🌿✨
